Following a long illness in the family, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $4,350. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by August, we must leave. I have two young children at home. Moving isn't just an expense - it would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. I have started working evenings as a cleaner, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here. Funds go to the landlord and nowhere else. Any amount left over after the arrears are cleared will go toward next month's rent. Where the $4,350 goes: • Rent arrears (3 months): $3,400 • Late fees and court costs: $210 • Utilities in arrears: $260 • First month of rent as a buffer: $480 Thanks for being kind about this. - Oskar

  • Wyatt CarrQuestion

    Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Oskar.

    • Oskar AbrahamssonOwnerAnswer

      Sure. The biggest one is rent arrears (3 months), $3,400. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Happy to explain more.

  • Zahid Shakil Bhuiyan

    Sending love, Oskar. I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Bengaluru.

    • Ratna Rina Permana

      Stay strong, Oskar. I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.

      • Rahima Sumaiya Zaman

        Stay strong. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Nakuru.
